About me and this blog

About Kate

I’m the creative thinker behind this blog. I’m also an international project manager, business developer, avid storyteller and amateur photographer. Oh, and most recently a 2016 MBA Candidate!

Me in a nutshell

I’m a travel addict with a passion for outdoor adventures, photography, communication and entrepreneurialism. I’m an idealist, self-proclaimed daydreamer and extremely introspective – I see life as a complex puzzle where everything is interconnected.

About Kate goes Global

Kate goes Global is where I share my personal impressions on the places I go and the adventures in life I experience as I strive to live intentionally.

My blog is my creative outlet: I love telling stories through my writing and photography! When I’m not writing about exploring new places (at home or while travelling), I share my thoughts on a broad variety of topics such as taking risks, overcoming challenges and living abroad.

While this blog is certainly my personal archive of ideas and experiences, it is mostly a platform that creates connections between like-minded people through travel and exploration.

All pictures on this blog are copyright of Kate goes Global and taken by me (unless otherwise noted). I use my Fujifilm FinePix S9600, Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W290 and Canon EOS 70D most of the time, and occasionally post photos taken from my iPhone 5 or scanned pictures of my Lomo Diana F+. Please ask for permission before using and/or distributing these photos and always provide a link and citation back to the image.

This blog is my hobby, not my business. I do not make a living out of it. I am happy to review relevant products by invitation, but will make my own mind up on whether to recommend them or not. I will always let my readers know if I got a free sample, meal or stay at the end of the post. Being this a non-commercial site, my integrity comes first.

Hi Kate, this is great and you’re an inspiration to everyone to get up and travel! I am hoping to do the same with my blog, http://www.thewelltravelledman.com if you wouldn’t mind checking it out and who knows, we may even run into each other!

Hi! I found your blog on the latest WordPress post and have really enjoyed the posts I’ve read. I am an expat living in Phuket, Thailand with my husband and 3 year old daughter. We all love traveling as well. I look forward to getting to know you through your posts! Have a great day!

I clicked Recommended Blogs for me on wordpress and your blog was among top three. A bit surprised to know that you didn’t opt to place ads on your page unlike most of others. Nice blog by the way.
Cheers.

Your blog is beautiful and so are you! I really love the 3 words you picked for this year, maybe check out my blog? I am also an aspiring travel blogger but have just became a newbie but i’m hoping my little blog will grow and maybe one day become like yours 🙂 http:www.anishanaabe.wordpress.com

Hi, saw your blog on the recommended list by WordPress and I love it. I don’t see that you’ve been to the Philippines though so just sending you a little note in case it comes up in your bucket list for 2015. Here are my blogs for your reference – https://backpackingincebuphilippines.wordpress.com & misunderstood33.blogspot.com.

What a wonderful site you have! I’m inspired by how you’ve managed to live in so many different places in a short amount of time! I think your story adds a different (and much needed) perspective since you’re showcasing how to factor in travel whilst still holding down a dayjob! Travelling full-time is inspiring but it’s equally inspiring to see you balancing both travel and work! 😀 I don’t think the latter gets enough coverage sometimes in the blogging world!

Love your travel blog! You should drop by the Caribbean sometime and enjoy some warm sun and pristine beaches! Btw, do you accept guest posts on your travel blog, if you do, drop me a line! Meanwhile, keep living your dream!
Love, Evy

Your blog is one of my favorite wine & chocolate kind of night reads. I’ve particularly enjoyed your London posts because I’m thinking about moving there one day (I’m in the US now but I have a German passport so the move would be easy). Your style of writing makes me want to explore the world more.
Great posts Katherina! Keep it up!

Grusse aus Geneva!
I saw you wrote a comment on a my blog Spring Cleaning Tips from Small Countries and I looked up your blog and LOVED it. The photography is phenomenal. I have posted your site to my favorites list, so some of my readers can check out your page. You may enjoy this one http://pattymackz.com/wordpress/2011/05/20/help-i-am-becoming-a-social-media-junky/
Look forward to following your travels. I have been to many of the places you show. I, too, am a bit of gypsy…Norwegian-American married to a Frenchman living in Switzerland, but I lived in Marburg for 2 yrs and Paris for 10.
A bientot,
Pat
